DTG and DTF Printing for Merrill: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Merrill crews order printed in full color gear from us because the numbers are public and the process is simple: free design help, a written proof within 24 hours, and delivery to any Merrill address in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 834 spread over 0.5 square miles, Merrill gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Tulelake, CA (8 mi), Malin, OR (10 mi), Falcon Heights, OR (11 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Kingsley Field, roughly 16 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
No storefront visit required. Send a rough idea or finished art, a real designer builds the proof at no charge, and the finished gear ships straight to Merrill.
Because Tulelake sits only 8 miles from Merrill, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Small batches derisk merch: print ten, sell ten, then commit big. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Merrill customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Merrill customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Every order includes the design team. They rescue low-resolution logos, invent art from plain descriptions, and keep insignia and period typography accurate when the concept demands it. Twenty-four hours after you send the idea, the proof is in your inbox; as many revisions as it takes come free, and your written sign-off is what starts the presses.
Or open the Design Lab and lay the design out yourself, priced in real time on the exact blank.
The table below is the actual price list Merrill customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.

Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Every order ships tracked to Merrill addresses with standard production plus shipping at 5 to 7 business days. Free shipping kicks in at 100 pieces, and pack shipping rates below that are published, not surprises at checkout.
Every box leaves counted, tracked, and matched to your roster. Shortages and shipping damage are on us to fix, fast, because delivery day is the only day the customer remembers.
Completely. Build the design in the Design Lab and the full order total sits on screen the whole time; no email, no call, no waiting.
Count 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, production included. Tighter date? Ask about rush and you get a straight answer before paying.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
Simple math: 2XL and up cost $6 more per piece on small orders and $4 more per piece from 25 pieces. No other size fees exist, and the Design Lab totals it live.
Custom work does not come back: due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. The protection is up front instead, a free proof that must be approved in writing before anything prints, so check sizing and art carefully at that stage.
